    Sponge filter + air Stone?

    I put a sponge filter in my 30g this week and an wondering if it's a bad idea to also use an air stone? Some say yes some say no. I already lost 2 fish last week and have managed to keep my last 1 alive. I don't want to hurt him. Thanks Sent from my SM-N910V using Aquarium Advice mobile app
